Llantysilio Community Council covers a large area, with the Council's boundary extending from the Ponderosa Café at the top of the Horseshoe Pass in the north, to Pentrefelin in the south. In the east it includes the Panorama, part of Sun Bank, and the village of Rhewl in the west.

Many of Llangollen’s best known tourist attractions are located in Llantysilio. These include the Horseshoe Pass, Panorama, Eliseg’s Pillar, Valle Crucis Abbey, Horseshoe Falls, Eglwyseg Rocks, Llangollen Motor Museum and the one mile stretch of canal leading from its source at the Horseshoe Falls. The Chain Bridge sits partly in Llangollen and partly in Llantysilio – the boundary being the centre of the River Dee.
